Cavaliers' Caris LeVert: Questionable for Wednesday
LeVert (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics.
LeVert started in place of Donovan Mitchell (calf) on Monday night, posting a respectable stat line across 39 minutes, despite the loss. With the Cavaliers hoping to roar back from a 3-1 deficit, the questionable tag is likely just a precaution as LeVert deals with a lingering knee injury.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Questionable for Game 5
Allen (ribs) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics.
Allen has missed the last seven games with a right rib contusion, but with the Cavaliers on the brink of elimination, they will hope to bring the big man back. If Allen is out, Evan Mobley will likely continue to start at center, with Isaac Okoro slotting in at power forward.

Cavaliers' Craig Porter: Unlikely to play Wednesday
Porter (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics.
Porter is expected to miss his 12 straight game Wednesday due to a left ankle sprain. While Porter's upgraded status suggests he's nearing a return, Cleveland being down 3-1 to Boston could mean the series will be over before the rookie guard can suit up again.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Iffy for Game 5
Mitchell (calf) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics.
Mitchell is in danger of missing his second straight contest due to a left calf strain he suffered in Game 3. Caris LeVert started in Mitchell's absence Monday and played well but aggravated a lingering knee injury and is also questionable for Game 5.

Cavaliers' Max Strus: Leads from deep in balanced Game 4
Strus provided 15 points (5-12 FG, 5-9 3Pt), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 43 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 109-102 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Strus led all players in Monday's contest in threes made while ending as one of four Cavaliers with double-digit scoring and handing out a team-high-tying assist total along with a pair of steals. Strus, who also hauled in seven boards, posted a new playoff high in threes made and notched his second game with 10 or more points in the series against the Celtics.

Cavaliers' Darius Garland: Leads offensively in Game 4 loss
Garland accumulated 30 points (12-27 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 40 minutes during Monday's 109-102 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Garland led all Cavaliers in scoring while connecting on a quartet of threes, handing out a team-high-tying assist total and adding a pair of steals in a well-rounded Game 4 against the Celtics. Garland, playing with more weight on his shoulders to lead the short-handed Cavaliers offensively, posted his highest scoring total of the postseason thus far. He has recorded at least 14 points and four assists in all four games against Boston in the semifinals.

Cavaliers' Caris LeVert: Nears 20 points in Game 4 start
LeVert ended with 19 points (9-18 FG, 1-8 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 39 minutes during Monday's 109-102 loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
LeVert got the starting nod with the Cavaliers playing without Jarrett Allen (ribs) and Donovan Mitchell (calf), providing a lift offensively while ending one point shy of the 20-point mark in a losing effort. LeVert has been a key player coming off the bench for Cleveland this series, posting 15 or more points in three of the four games against Boston. If Mitchell is able to return for Game 5, look for LeVert to return to the second unit to be a spark off the bench. If Mitchell does miss Game 5, LeVert will be called upon again to step into the starting lineup.

Cavaliers' Caris LeVert: Will start sans Mitchell
LeVert will start Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.
The Cavaliers, already playing without Jarrett Allen (ribs), also lost Donovan Mitchell (calf) for Game 4, so LeVert will get his first crack in the starting lineup during the postseason. Over the last two games against the Celtics, LeVert has averaged 18.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists while shooting 51.7 percent from the field. Across 10 starts during the regular season, LeVert averaged 16.2 points, 7.0 assists, 5.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 34.3 minutes.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Remains out for Game 4
Allen (ribs) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.
Allen will miss a seventh straight game due to a right rib contusion. Evan Mobley will continue to start at center, while Isaac Okoro slots in at power forward. Donovan Mitchell (calf) is also out, so Caris LeVert will join the first five for the first time during the postseason. Allen's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Boston.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Won't play Monday
Mitchell (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Mitchell had been stellar over his last six postseason appearances, averaging 35.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.0 steals in 35.3 minutes. However, he suffered a strained left calf during Game 3 and will be sidelined for a critical matchup in Cleveland. With Mitchell out, Caris LeVert may slide into the starting lineup at shooting guard, while Isaac Okoro, Sam Merrill and Marcus Morris are also candidates for increased offensive roles.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Present for shootaround
Allen (ribs) was spotted taking part in the Cavaliers' morning shootaround but remains questionable for Monday's Game 4 matchup with the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Semifinals round, Carly Mascitti of News 5 Cleveland reports.
Allen has missed the past six games for Cleveland with a right rib contusion. He was mostly doing stationary shooting during his time on the court Monday, making it unclear if he'll be ready to put an end to his absence when the Cavaliers face the Celtics in Game 4. More clarity on Allen's status should arrive closer to the 7 p.m. ET tipoff.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Not present at shootaround
Mitchell (calf) wasn't present for morning shootaround and remains questionable for Monday's Game 4 matchup with the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Semifinals round, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Mitchell is tending to a strained left calf, but it would be a major surprise if he wasn't cleared to play in advance of Monday's 7 p.m. ET tipoff. He didn't seem to be limited by the injury in the Cavaliers' 106-103 loss to the Celtics in Game 3 on Saturday, producing 33 points (12-22 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals in 43 minutes.

Cavaliers' Ty Jerome: Still out
Jerome (ankle) won't play in Monday's Game 4 against Boston.
Jerome hasn't suited up since October due to a right ankle injury that required surgery. Even if he were to return at some point during the playoffs, he likely wouldn't be part of the Cavs' rotation.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Questionable once more
Allen (ribs) is questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Allen has missed six consecutive contests with bruised ribs despite being listed as questionable leading up to each contest. While he's been sidelined, Evan Mobley has slid to the center spot and Isaac Okoro has entered the starting lineup. Should that trend continue, Tristan Thompson would be lined up to fill the backup center role.
